new info on the main page

[CMF_fred]

is it possible to update the info on the home page. I enjoyed reading about cisco's trip to japan but that was nearly 3 years ago..... maybe pple can post in a photo shoot and write up of what they've done and change it every quarter or month?

 

[CMF_Campbell]

Yeah actually thats not a bad idea i was thinking the same thing the other day! Maybe some photos and reviews of Aus. meets?

 

[CMF_tris]

wow.... i was looking at it last night thinking the exact same thing............ and also the multimedia section!!! its in need of some new vids... maybe if its possible to open it so that everyone can post their own vids!!! im keen to see some micra track action!

cisco if you want hand me over some of the reigns and ill give it a bit of an update

 

[CMF_Campbell]

Yeah come on Cisco.. . . Pleeeeeease

 

[smidge]

or hand it to someone web savvy and currently owning a micra!

even better, convert to PHPBB !

 

[CMF_deNs]

Converting a proprietary system like this (it is, right?) to something like phpBB would be an utter nightmare. Were you volunteering?

[smidge]

seen it done before on a gemini forum, its all PHP based so its a matter of adjusting the tables

not volunteering, no

a modern forum layout/engine would encourage more people to use/join/come back

 

[CMF_evade]

cisco is the php master...if he wanted to port it over he could do it piece of piss..i mean he built this forum from the ground up

however its good to have total control of everything on the forum so we can basically do whatever we like...

that said since its getting less maintained now something a little more 'typical' forum like wouldn't be bad.

 

[CMF_deNs]

I know it's just tables - but there's certain stuff which wouldn't be carried over unless you had phpBB mods to accomodate. Not impossible, but you'd want to be sure about making the move.

Something like vBulletin or Invision would be nice, but for a free alternative, phpBB is by a long shot the better choice for freeware/open source BB software. I couldn't ever justify paying a yearly fee for a vBulletin licence or whichever.

Porn on the front page would definately bring more visitors.

I'm thinking lesbian pillow fights?

Thoughts anyone?

 

[CMF_tris]

is cisco dead or what?? hes jus kinda left the site to battle on by itself!!

haha yom thats a sick idea!! a pics page would be sweet too!! along with vids

 

[CMF_Campbell]

Yeah I got the password to Naughtyamerica.com so we could use some of there stuff???

 

[smidge]

must need the porn cause the micra definately doesn't help pick up the ladies!

(and your size choices are limited cause the cars so damn small...)

 

[CMF_tris]

so.... anyone heard from cisco?? is he guna let some1 else take over the site?? front page is very boring atm....
